Comments:

Nice quiet 40/80m conditions with very little thunderstorm QRN here, plus low
K-index = good low band propagation.  Excellent ears by many Eu IOTA 'big guns',
much appreciated!  Was a Run as well as S&P operation to add QSOs but also
work the big 15-point island stations.  Appears to be best 12 hour/single mode
(CW) effort points-wise for me from this QTH (NA-031, Aquidneck Is.) since I
started doing IOTA Contest in 2010.

Had hoped for some (a little?!) 15m propagation to Europe but there was
practically none (only VY2 and CR5 were worked).  A very brief 10m opening
netted just CR5.  This situation not likely to improve for next few years
unfortunately, ugghhh.

Always a fun time, especially after 1700z, when Europe starts hearing/needing to
work NA/other continent stations outside of Eu.

59 Unique IOTAs worked... AS: 1, EU: 42, NA: 13, OC: 3.  Got 140 15-point QSOs =
42% (all-time high % for me).  Results filtering/award recognition **by
continent** would likely boost island participation OUTSIDE OF EUROPE where it
is certainly needed ... please consider this RSGB! [My annual IOTA Contest
suggestion for improvement *again*].  Posting of event records by category and
continent would be appreciated too!

I missed the last hour plus due to oversleeping... not sure I will thus survive
the 300k point mark after log checking!

QSL via Clublog and LoTW PLEASE.  Thanks for the QSOs!!  73, W1WBB  Bill
